Default LS3 Fabricated Intake on Ebay

Has anyone seen this intake? Curious on if anyone is running one. Looks like a nice piece and seems shorter than the Hi Ram so less cutting would be necessary in a 4th gen...

If it's not shorter than 8 inches you'll still have to cut the cowl.

Yeah its still pretty high enough to cut the cowl most likely. Looks like a nice piece.

If its inexpensive and on EBay, chances are its Chinese caca. Itd look nice on a Model T street rod or something similar.

I've never seen any of the Chinese knock-offs that required welding. Their junk is poorly cast copies, waaay too much effort in fabbing something from scratch. Price is also similar to the High Ram, ProComp would be about half that. If they'd build it an inch or so shorter, it might be a solution to hood clearance.
